Hello/Tan'si

Hello, my name is Matthew Miller. I am a clinical registered social worker, working with
Indigenous Psychological Services. While I am not Indigenous, I deeply respect the worldviews,
ways of knowing, traditions, and beliefs of Indigenous peoples.

My experience includes working with Indigenous groups and individuals with organizations such
as, Families Matter Society, Calgary Dream Centre, Fresh Start Recovery, Corrections Canada,
and Veterans Affairs Canada. I was also honoured to work with the Kainai Nation in Southern
Alberta for various community wellness projects while working at the Canadian Red Cross.
I am a proud father of four adult children and grandfather to five grandchildren and have grown
to appreciate the generational knowledge and traditions that have been passed down in my own
family.

With genuine care for the people who invite me on their wellness and healing journey, I work to
create a supportive space to share, offering kindness and compassion without judgment.
Together, respectfully, we’ll explore your current situation, and collaboratively develop a realistic
roadmap to help you achieve your goals.

I have facilitated and taught many groups for students, couples, and families on topics such as
anxiety, depression, effective communication, caregiver burn out and strengthening
relationships.

I have taught programs in prisons and addiction recovery centres, helping over 1,000 fathers to
reconnect to their families in healthier, more respectful ways.

I am an LGBTQIA2S+ ally and I offer services in-person in Calgary, or video, or phone sessions
across Alberta.
